Hi Dave,
I have a Fladen Maxumus IM8 triple tip 2-3-4oz but will take 6oz.
It comes in 2 lengths 8ft and 10 ft,I have the ten footer.
It is light enough to hold all day if you want and has fantastic action with power in reserve in case you hook into something decent,comes with 3 tips and Fuji Sic Guides.
Have a look at tacklebargains.co.uk
